    BLIS enhancement

    On Fusions with BLIS, the LED is powered by the module in the rear bumper, so two wire control but the LED is mounted to a small circuit board that I haven't deciphered yet. I used a paralleled resistor to make mine a little brighter to offset my tinted windows. Perhaps a tiny capacitor would...

    2010 Expy Ext. keyless entry keypad

    Desoldering can be a pain but it's not impossible. I had mine apart to replace the green LEDs with white ones. There's eight clips or so on my style so I had to use a few toothpicks to hold clips separated while I worked on the other clips. edit: Whoops, just cleaning doesn't require...

    2007 Aftermarket Backup camera

    In case anyone is feeling adventurous, I do want to point out that in many vehicles the interior A-pillar trim is not meant to be removed multiple times. I know for a fact that on Fusions, the pillar trim is intended to be replaced if it's ever removed and uses a single-use clip system because...

    Can't get WDH set right - Curt TruTrack

    I don't feel insulted by your discussion, I'm genuinely appreciative. I fear I come off as dismissive/bullheaded for insisting on sticking with this vehicle/camper combination. Looking at things a little further, one problem I'm noticing is that the hitch doesn't seem appropriate for my camper...

    Can't get WDH set right - Curt TruTrack

    @Bedrck47 I understand your point and it's up for debate, but I was under the impression that the 9900lb GTWR was the maximum the trailer itself is rated to weight, as in what its chassis/axle/tires are capable of handling. Obviously in normal use the camper doesn't weigh anywhere near that...

    Can't get WDH set right - Curt TruTrack

    Thanks, didn't think to check with the TT forum. I'll take a look over there. As far as I know, the truck doesn't have load leveling. We bought it used, is there any obvious differences? I don't hear a compressor run and there's nothing obvious on the dash/instrumentation. The rear end sagging...

    Can't get WDH set right - Curt TruTrack

    Hello all, I'm at a loss here. We had previously pulled our Open Range Light 272RLS (7800lb base weight, 830lb tongue weight) with a 2002 GMC Savana 1500 and Curt TruTrack weight distribution hitch. Obviously the Savana was not rated for a camper this heavy but it was at least level thanks to...
